Lead fantasy sestertius of Diva Faustina I. Combining an obverse of Diva Faustina I with the reverse legend of the empress, as struck under Antoninus Pius, but with a type known from the coinage of Julia Titi in AD 80-81, and subsequently for further empresses such as Julia Domna. DIVA FAVSTINA AVG, draped bust right / AVGVSTA, Venus standing right, seen from behind, half nude with drapery hanging low beneath her posterior, holding palm branch in her left hand, a globe in her right and leaning with her left elbow on a low column to her left. Cf. RIC 366 for all except reverse type, for which cf. RIC 386.
Very Fine, possibly unique.
